Set among the pastoral Midlands of inland Tasmania, Bothwell is a historic rural town where winter wood heater smoke is the most notable seasonal air quality issue, tending to settle in on cold, still nights between June and August given the inland, less breeze-exposed setting. For the rest of the year, the town shares in Tasmania's generally clean-air reputation, underpinned by the Roaring Forties winds that sweep the island for much of the year. A modest bushfire smoke risk arises each summer, from January to March. Outside winter evenings, Bothwell's air quality is typically very good.

When is air pollution at its worst in Bothwell?
Anyone tracking air quality in Bothwell should keep an eye on winter months, when still, cold nights trap wood-smoke from heaters, especially in valley towns. Beyond winter smoke, constant westerlies off the Southern Ocean keep air among the best around. Keeping half an eye on forecasts during that stretch is the practical takeaway otherwise.
Are air quality levels in Bothwell based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
